one of the luck ones, being worth conSld-
cradle and owning u large amount OF
stock.
OF course these examples of fabulous
wealth made in a few months time have
set the country wild. OF the hundred
mining cOmpanys in existence in this range
there are probably not One-tifth that will
ever find enough To pay for ever digging II
out. The total output last year was 600,
900 tons. This year it will he l,5OouOo
tons. And yet there are only twelve or
fifteen mines now able to ship ore. As
may readily be imagined gigantic swlnd.
les are being perpetrated daily. Good ana
worthless mines are stocked alike, gener-
orally for $1,000, 900 so each. Vast
amounts of this stock have been sold all
over the country. At least two-thlrds OF
il will prove to he not worth the paper on
which il is printed Eastern capitalists
are flocking to this wonderful region.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being
invested in mining stocks every week.

money is invested in the GOgehic.
Therea are dozen, maybe twenty, mines
along the range that are very valuable, but
outsiae of these the most of the wild cat
stock and there are cords of it, will prove
worthless. Everybody in Milwaukee, the
center of the stock dealing, is loaded with
the stock, good, bad or indifferent.
Clerks and young people in moderate cir
and even sewing girls have IN
vested their hard earnings in these stocks
and if there is ever a collapse the suffering
will be fearful. If you contemplate buy
inc stock be sure OfOne thing-be sure the
company owns mine, not merely an op-
tion to mine on somebody else's land.
